INTERNATIONAL POLICY ANALYSIS The Radical Right in Macedonia ZDRAVKO SAVESKI& ARTAN SADIKU December 2012 n In the specific case of the Republic of Macedonia, two forms of nationalism and ultra-nationalism coexist: the ethnic Macedonian and the ethnic Albanian one. There are strong ties between the discourses of the extreme right of both sides and the two biggest moderate right-wing parties VMRO-DPMNE(ethnically Macedonian) and DPA(belonging to the Albanian side). n Radical-right ideas, commitments, theses and values, which in other countries are mostly on the margins of public space or completely excluded from it, are part of the conventional media and public space in Macedonia. n While the ethnic Macedonian right-wing extremism contains the revision of borders with neighbouring Greece and Bulgaria as well as an opposition to EU and NATO, both seen as supporters of Greece in the question of the»name issue« of the coun­try, Albanian extremists either push for a more federalized Macedonia or even the unification of all Albanians in only one state. So, the crucial Ohrid Framework Agree­ment of 2001 which ended the armed conflict between the National Liberation Army(NLA) of ethnic Albanians and the Macedonian armed forces, is consequently questioned from opposite sides.
